One Grave at A Time

A Night Huntress Novel

Having narrowly averted an (under)world war, Cat Crawfield wants nothing more than a little downtime with her vampire husband, Bones. Unfortunately, her gift from New Orleans' voodoo queen just keeps on giving-leading to a personal favor that sends them into battle once again, this time against a villainous spirit. Centuries ago, Heinrich Krammer was a witch hunter. Now, every All Hallows Eve, he takes physical form to torture innocent women before burning them alive. This year, however, a determined Cat and Bones must risk all to send him back to the other side of eternity--forever. But one wrong step and they'll be digging their own graves.

It seems that Bones and Cat just never can get a break. This time a "dead" witch hunter has to be stopped before he can kill any more innocent women on Halloween. Lots of action and romance in is book.

I found this entry to be more intriguing than the rest of the series, mainly because Frost informs us that there really was a witch hunter named Heinrich Kramer and he did write the book Malleus Maleficarum that angers Cat so deeply. I, too, found a copy online and once you get past the Olde English style it’s positively chilling.

One Grave at a Time by Jeaniene Frost is a perfect mixture of all things urban fantasy and paranormal romance. The best parts of this story are all the relationships- Cat and Bones, Spade and Denise, Dexter and Tyler, Fabian and Cat... And though this book is the sixth in the series, I think it could be read as a stand alone. There is just enough throwback without it feeling tedious to old fans of the series.

Quotes

You seem pretty relaxed about this whole situation," I said with mild exasperation, noting the nonchalance in his tone and vibe.
Bones all but rolled his eyes. "Why wouldn't I be? For the first time in years, our relationship is solid, no one's actively trying to murder us, and our closest mates are happy. Blimey, Kitten, if I were any more relaxed, I'd need a smoke."
